Chapter 9

There are bars, bungalows, and a cross in the center of this tiny border town.

The town's residents are now rotting corpses lying on the ground instead of the bustle and activity of the past. The only moving things at this time were maggots and mosquitoes.

Two tall, thin people arrived from a great distance away from the town. Their features were obscured by the ragged linen cloaks they were both wearing.

The tall man had to raise his hand and hide his nose as he entered the town. This place smelled awful.

Until they arrived at the white cross in the town's center, the two continued strolling along the gray stone road.

The tall guy raised his cloak, revealing a resolute and masculine face.

"The town had more than 200 residents, but none of them survived. They all perished from the disease.

The tall man appeared to be concluding, but his partner soon disproved it.

"No, Oliver, the disease didn't kill these unfortunate people." "They perished of the devil's breath, and I smell the stench of those terrible things here," said a sympathetic voice from behind the hood

"you mean witch, right? Oliver asked.

"I didn't use metaphors," the masked man shook his head and replied to Oliver.

Oliver's pupils abruptly shrank. Is that an abysmal devil?

"Your grace, Elijah, we arrived here with the oracle's direction half a month ago. So far, we have witnessed at least a thousand corpses. I would like to ask a question: Is Her Royal Highness predicting, What did you see?"

Despite his constant doubts, Oliver paused for a brief period before asking.

"The sky is descending in the crimson karmic fire, the earth is in mourning, the glory of God has been insulted, and the devil, crawling out of hell with his minions, is about to devour the whole world," the shrouded figure, Elijah, said.

A pair of azure blue eyes could be seen when the individual wearing the cloak tilted his head. Oliver, this is what Her Majesty the Holy Maiden observed with her prescient eyes.

Oliver broke down in tears, asking, "So what are we waiting for? Catch up with the demon and kill him while he's still vulnerable.

He shook his head, Elijah. "I can't catch the devil since he's still weak But now he should be noticeable" the shrouded man continued.

Under the cloak, Elijah pulled a clear crystal ball out and recited a protracted incantation. A translucent white light started to come from the crystal ball, but then a snake-like-looking black cloud materialized.

The crystal ball abruptly broke into thousands of pieces that were strewn all over the place, and the dark air soon began to crack.

Elijah's pale hand received a deep cut, and the blood trickled down his fingers, which was a little startling.

Your Majesty Oliver couldn't help but shout, but Elijah's trembling voice cut him off: "The powerful Knight Commander of the Holy Light, whose trail I have found, will be up to you next.

Oliver grimaced, put his right fist on his left chest, and murmured solemnly:

"I'll uphold the sacred light,"

...

"Master, a city is up ahead."

Thalia's face was filled with reverence, but her eyes had a little crazed and wicked appearance.

Carlo joked as he joyfully clicked his fingers: "Let's head out and start shopping.

Never before have I visited a city like this."

As the two made their way to the city gate, the soldiers posted at the entrance cast an intense look of contempt at Talia's hideous visage.

He turned his head unconsciously and swore.

You should remove the cloak.

Carlo complied and grinned, displaying a young, fair face.

He had already received a promotion a week prior. By annihilating towns of three hundred people utilizing the plague arts, a middle-level demon can become a high-level demon.

He is now around the size of a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy because his physique and grown once more.

Carlo adopted a slight "disguise," and as a result, he now appears to be a lovely youngster with flaxen hair who is cheerful and healthy.

Carlo's power increased when he was elevated to a higher position.

He can now easily kill him without the Weakness Technique since, like the last middle-level knight Root, his strength and speed have risen.

Additionally, the system offered him another opportunity to enter a lottery after he was promoted to a higher level, but he had not yet used it.

Five little communities were massacred. The evil value on his body reached approximately fifteen thousand after he massacred five villages. Carlo had originally intended to exchange for the "Devil God's Inheritance Seed," but since this kind of seed sounds like a growth-type item, it does not significantly increase the current strength. Instead, Carlo used 10,000 evil points to convert the basic martial arts, and the magic was leveled up one level.

Now, "Master" has been replaced by "Rough Proficiency" after these two skills.

He then spent a further 500 evil points to acquire the "ghoul art" power.

Similar to how the liches' "ghoul art" advanced magic evolved from basic magic, several dark magic groups have started to emerge.

He also instructed Talia. in the "ghoul tart," as he was taken aback to discover that killing his servants may also grant him experience and evil points. The advantages for him increase as Talia gets stronger.

"Leave, you brat!" From behind, the guard pushed Carlo hard.

Talia's eyes grew icy, but Carlo was grinning and appeared unconcerned.

The streets of this small border town that connects the kingdom's interior are crowded with people and fairly rich. There are nasty mercenaries holding huge swords and barely clothed mercenaries everywhere you turn.

Carlo's eyes were full of wonder, just like a rural bumpkin who had recently moved to the city.

People began to disperse in front of them as a result of the terrible expression on Talia's face

.

"Damn nasty woman, leave this place". Behind them, a bald mercenary approached, shoved Carlo aside, and spat on Talia.

Talia was dragged away from Carlo. It appeared as though the mercenaries had just returned from an operation outside the city. Their garments had different degrees of wear and tear, and their bodies reeked of perspiration and blood.

"Stay with them."

Carlo softly conversed with Thalia.

Carlo must locate a good location to begin his experiment because the ghoul art can significantly speed up the rate at which he can gather experience and evil points.

It looks like The Mercenary Tavern is pretty good.

Carlo entered a crowded pub after the mercenaries did. His nose and his nose were both affected by the fragrance of feet and barley wine.

Carlo entered a crowded pub after the mercenaries did. Carlo came in without altering his look despite the intense smell of barley wine and feet mixing with his nose.

"Oh my God, Babbit. That you haven't perished in the Lost Forest is such a shame." Everyone in the tavern roared with laughter as an egotistical voice could be heard.

The mercenary with a beard opened his mouth and swore back: "I still want to live, Marsay, so I can enjoy your sister's body. You're unaware of how lovely her voice is."
